*~Flats, Flats, Flats~*

*sigh* so my obsession for shoes (especially flats) continues to grow... so much for spending freeze!!

Bought a pair of Sam Edelman Calypso Ballet Flats last week at Capezio (Vaughan Mills mall location) - I've been eyeing them since they came out a few years back and finally pulled the trigger since they were on sale for CAD$95!! Not that good of a deal BUT it seems like this style is discontinuing and is on clearance in stores and online so this seems like my last chance to grab them (in my size too~~I had to settle for size 5.5 but luckily the flats run small and I was able to work it with an insole) I had been searching for a better deal online but the white colour is very popular and sold out everywhere~~and the other few stores that still carry this style (prob out of size) were still at regular price.
The price difference between these flats in US & in Canada is pretty huge (regularly price CAD$125 in Canada but only around USD$90 in U.S. and plus sales happen much more frequent in the U.S.) and that's why I've been delaying the purchase hoping to find a better deal online~

AND oh so ironic...right after I bought these...there is a Winners location at Vaughan Mills (i used to shop at winners a few years back but now they never have anything good...), I saw the exact same flats for only CAD$60 *sigh* but in a size 6...just can't catch a break LOL but I was so surprised they were there and no one had snapped them up!


When I went to Buffalo, I saw them in other colours (and other sizes...oh if I only I was a size 6 + up) for only USD$50 in Saks outlet!! *sigh*...the black looks very nice as well (BUT I bought a pair for my younger sister during boxing day sale for only CAD$45...haha great day for her!)


These are very stylish and elegant and perfect for jeans & leggings~~they're on sale in various colours & sizes on on endless.cm and amazon.com~~highly recommend you girls grab a pair when they're still available!


I used to love juicy couture a few years back but now they're getting a little tacky...BUT I was pleasantly surprised when I saw these at Capezio at Bayview Village shopping centre...on sale for CAD$65 (40% off from original price of CAD$115)~~so sad that they only had size 6 when I needed a size 5...the size 6 did run a little small but was still too loose for me...although these are jelly flats, they look surprisingly classy and elegant (the picture does not do these justice) and definitely office appropriate~~I suggest you girls to check it out!!
